I help senior dog parents struggling with anticipatory grief and quality of life issues, by offering practical tips, advice and one on one support. 

 

Anticipatory Grief – As pet parents it’s natural to be anxious about your pets coming to the end of their life and having to go on without them

 

Quality of Life – Of course you worry your elderly or sick dogs might be suffering

 

Senior Dog Care and Comfort – Find ways to ensure you best accommodate the needs of your aging or sick dogs

 

As a loving pet parent, facing the reality of your dog aging or becoming ill is incredibly painful. The uncertainty, the fear of missing the right moment, the worry about their quality of life—it can feel overwhelming. But you don’t have to go through it alone.

I’m here to guide you through these difficult times with compassion and understanding. When anticipatory grief weighs you down, I’ll validate your feelings while helping you stay present with your dog, creating lasting memories. Together, we’ll also address caregiver burnout and make end-of-life plans that reflect your dog’s best interests.

When it comes to quality of life, I’ll help you see the signs that go beyond eating habits. Many pets suffer silently, and waiting for a clear signal isn’t the answer. I’ll support you in detaching from the emotional whirlwind to truly ask if your dog’s current life is one they’d want.

And for your senior dog’s comfort, I’ll provide guidance on adapting to their changing needs—both physically and mentally. From understanding what’s normal aging to identifying health concerns, I’ll equip you with the tools to keep your dog happy and comfortable in their golden years.

You don’t have to do this alone. Let’s navigate this journey together.

 

I’ve been rescuing and caring for senior dogs since 2009. From vision and hearing loss to obesity, dementia, kidney disease, liver issues, cardiac problems, Cushing’s, mobility challenges and more, you could say I’ve dealt with and learned a lot! In addition to my hands on experience, I’ve taken many courses and earned several qualifications to keep learning how to help senior dogs and they include: Senior Dog Enrichment, Understanding Canine Anxiety (diploma), Care of the Senior Pet (certificate), Pet Bereavement Counsellor (diploma)  and I’m a Certified Pet Loss Grief Support Coach.

 

I met with Hindy to talk about how to know it is time to let your senior dog go. She was so empathetic, understanding, and knowledgeable. She listened and offered her experiences, advice, and a new perspective for me to think about. I appreciated her taking the time to talk to me openly and honestly about a difficult topic.” 

This was the first zoom I’ve ever attended. I couldn’t be more pleased. I found that getting to speak with others face to face was so beneficial. The topic anticipatory grief is one that is very personal to almost everyone and I think  difficult to express in words (post).  The zoom session made that much easier. Great idea Hindy
